Nuclear Quadrupole Resonance ofB-Trichloroborazole

Nuclear Quadrupole Resonance*

A resonance phenomenon which is closely related to NMR is nuclear quadrupole resonance (NQR), which was discovered in 1950 by Dehmelt and Kruger. All nuclei with a spin > 1 possess in addition to the magnetic moment, an electric quadrupole moment eQ, which measures the deviation of the distribution of the positive charge in the nucleus from spherical symmetry. While e is the elementary charge, ...

Nuclear Quadrupole Resonance (paper Ii)

The Polymer Diagnostics Section (Code 6122) of the U.S. Naval Research Laboratory (NRL) has expertise in solid state nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR), magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), and nuclear quadrupole resonance (NQR). In 1983, NRL established an interagency agreement with the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) to advise the FAA on NMR methods to detect explosives. We were aware of ear...

Nuclear Quadrupole Resonance (paper I)

Nuclear quadrupole resonance (NQR) combines the spatial localization capability and convenience of metal detection or ground-penetrating radar (GPR) with the compound specific detection capability offered by chemical detection techniques. Starting in the mid-1990s, groups at Quantum Magnetics Inc. and the Naval Research Laboratory made considerable improvements in the basic scientific and instr...

Nuclear Quadrupole Resonance Studies on Molecular Complexes *

NQR studies o f a number of molecular complexes with p-chloronitrobenzene and o-chloronitrobenzene as acceptors and different hydrocarbons as donors were carried out. A linear relationship between the NQR shift and the ionization potentials o f the donors is obtained. Maksyutin’s idea o f a positive shift with respect to acceptors having a quadrupolar nucleus is shown to hold in those systems. ...
